sorry but its first time i use midi stuff

Nobody?

Well, I guess you want to use the DJM as a controller, when you turn a knob on the mixer live response right?

Then you need to do this :

DJM > Midi Out > MIDI in Cable on the USB Device > Midi USB device > Computer

If that doesn't work try the other cable...

Then set up Live accordingly, find the midi USB thing in the preferences menu and set it to remote. You may have to change something on the DJM as well but I don't know much about that. For more information you can read the manual of the DJM & Live.

Oh and here is a little thing about midi : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIDI
